STEP 2: SENSOR ACTIVATION/ TEST
Tool Positioning
Do NOT touch the metal rim. The tool needs to be pointed at the sensor through the tire.
1. LF activated sensors
To test a sensor the tool should be placed alongside the valve stem and the ‘Test’ symbol needs to
be pressed.
(Note: with Ford Banded sensors, the tool should be held 180°away from the stem.)
2. Non-LF activated sensors (some Beru sensors up to 2009)
If the tool requires rapid tyre deflation (of the order of 10psi or 0.5bar), deflate the tyre and place
the tool alongside the stem while pressing the test key.
During testing, the screen displays the transmission frequency strength in the bottom left corner and
the receiving frequency strength in the bottom right corner of the screen. A progress bar is shown in
the middle of the screen.
Different makes of TPM sensors respond at different speeds / time intervals.
[SCREENSHOT]
Connect the OBD Module to the Vehicles OBD II port and connect the tool to the module. In case of
any problems the troubleshoot menu will help you to obtain a connection.

STEP 3: TREAD DEPTH AND PRESSURE MEASUREMENT
In this step of the menu the tool tries to establish a connection to a Tap100 Tread depth and
Pressure measurement Tool.
To set up the connection, please turn on the TAP100 and wait for it to boot to the Main Menu. Keep
both tools within 15 feet of one another and wait for the Tech1000 to set up the connection
automatically.
If there are any problems with setting up the connection please use the “Troubleshoot” function for
a guided troubleshooting.
After successfully connecting the TAP100 to the Tool, please continue the diagnostics on the TAP100
as shown on its screen.
To repeat the measurement Tap on “Repeat” in the bottom left corner and rerun the measurement
as shown above.
The second tread depth reading will overwrite the previously captured data.
To continue with the next step without reading tread depth and pressure, tap on “skip”. A warning
screen will appear including information that the reading is incomplete.
STEP 4: INSPECTION SUMMARY
In this menu point the tool gives a structured overview of all the outstanding work resulting from
issues found in preceding steps.
Tread depth problems:
For possible issues regarding the tread depth and if the tire needs to be replaced, tap on one of the
highlighted wheel positions to select the tire specifications of the newly fitted tire. If the problem is
not fixed, this will be shown in the report later.
Sensor problems:
For possible issues regarding the sensor and if the sensor needs to be replaced, tap on one of the
highlighted wheel positions to select the sensor part number of the newly fitted sensor and the type
of the sensor.
STEP 5: RE-READ SENSORS
As soon as all measurements are taken, the data can be send to the Tech1000 by pressing the Bl
Icon on the TAP100 [SCREENSHOT] . The Tech1000 will then show all data that was sent via the
TAP100.

APPENDIX
APPENDIX A: Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
When using the TECH1000 tool, it is important for the user to verify the Model Year to help insure
looking for that proper sensor and using the proper vehicle COMs when
necessary.
By using the vehicles VIN and locate the 10th digit from the left the
user can in most cases accurately determine that vehicle’s Model Year.
Take that digit and reference the chart on this sheet. This will be the
Model Year which needs to be selected on the tool.
APPENDIX B: TPMS SYSTEM REVIEW
When cycling the ignition for off to run, the TPMS tell-tale should come on,
and go off. This would indicate a system with no fault present.
Solid Light: Pressure Problem
Check the tyre pressures, and adjust to placard. NOTE:
Some vehicles are equipped with sensors in the spare.
Also, with some vehicles, over pressure may turn on the
light.

Flashing Light: System Problem
System problems can range from faulty sensor(s) to
sensors on the vehicle that haven’t been learned to that
vehicle.
APPENDIX C: MODES and MODE CHANGING
Sensors can have many different “modes” when they have been read, such as Learn, Tool LF, YD Sleep,
YD Rest, Hi Norm Dly. Some of those are called sleep mode to preserve battery life.
Mostly, these modes are not important because the sensor will be supplied already in the correct
mode to use. But for some sensors made by Continental it is important that the mode is displayed as
“Park”, as otherwise it will not work on the vehicle.
The TECH1000 tool has the ability to perform the necessary mode change. If a sensor is shown as
“Ship”, “Test” or “Off” and the relearn toolkit provides the option “Set Sensor to Park Mode”, please
use this option to change the sensor mode into the correct one:
•Go to “Relearn” and select vehicle (MMY).
•Press enter when relearn procedure shows.
•Select the spanner in the upper left corner with the Up/Down buttons. Press Enter.
•Select “Set Sensor to Park Mode”, press Enter.
•Go to the wheel, hold the tool near the sensor and press “Test”.
•Repeat for each wheel.
•Start the Relearn procedure.
Also, some sensors are supplied in a mode where they cannot be read by the tool unless they are
pressurized in a wheel. Some examples would be replacement sensors bought from a Ford dealership,
and some Mitsubishi Continental sensors.
APPENDIX D: COMMS ERROR TROUBLESHOOTING
If a problem or error occurs during the COMMS process, follow the steps below before calling
customer support.
Check vehicle ignition
Vehicle ignition must be in the RUN position in order for vehicle COMMS process to complete.
Check cable to tool connection
Insure the cable is connected at the DB15 and thumb screws are finger tight.
Check cable connection at vehicle
Make sure OBDII connection is good.
Verify Make, Model, and Year
COMMS can change from Model to Model, and Year to Year. Verify the tool is set-up to the proper
MMY.
Verify tool power level
If the tool has a low battery charge, this may affect the COMMS process. Charge tool and try again.
